My Touch's battery went completely dead. When I tap the on - off
switch I get the message "charging" and a percentage on the
braille display for a few seconds and then it goes blank?
What can I do from here please to allow me to use it?

Subject: [BNU] Hi from a new BrailleNote Touch user, and some
questions
Hi everyone,
Last Wednesday I picked up my shiny new BrailleNote Touch, and
while this is very exciting, it's also a little baffling. I am
completely new to keysoft and android, so I'm sure I'll be
flooding the list with questions.
The most pressing things at the moment are my power supply and
connecting to Dropbox. First, the power supply seems to be
dodgy, or else I've broken it somehow. It says to put it in with
the two pins facing downward and not to force it, so I didn't,
but its connection to the unit is very loose and it wobbles about
and therefore doesn't seem to be charging consistently. Do I
need to buy another one from Humanware, or can I use another
cable with a micro USB charger, like the one I have for my
bluetooth keyboard.
The second thing is I need quite urgently to connect to my
dropbox account. I downloaded the dropbox app, and when I open
it it asks me to sign in, so I give it my email and password. I
get an email on my iPad to say that I have connected an Android
device to dropbox, but on the BrailleNote I just get tossed back
into the main menu. Dropbox doesn't open.
I have a dropbox account for myself, and a google drive account
for work, and on my iPad I use a program called AirFile which
allows me to have the two accounts together logged into the one
app, so I can move files between them. I thought I might need a
similar app for the BrailleNote, so I downloaded one called
Rainbow Drive. Again, when I give it my dropbox details to
connect it, I get an email from dropbox saying this has happened,
but Rainbow Drive tells me that connection to dropbox failed.
If anyone has any ideas, I'd very much like to hear them. And
just as an aside, I downloaded Kindle and the BrailleNote won't
let me sign into that either, which is very disappointing as I'm
very eager to give that a go :)
Thanks,
